some sites just are different then others and require cookies. anyways, im assuming your using internet explorer 6. something if so this method should work

open up explorer
1. Select Tools
2. Select Internet Options
3. Select the Privacy tab.
4. Select Advanced
5. Deselect override automatic cookie
handling button
6. Click on the OK
7. Click OK to exit


if u have an older version of explorer or this doenst work just let me know

ok go back to internet options and the privacy tab and their is a meter thing pull it all the way down and it will allow all cookies if that doesnt work then download mozilla "www.mozilla.com" and use it for your internet browser

i would actually recommend getting mozilla anyways

If it used to work fine in the past and you hadn't changed anything then it's possible that IE got corrupted/hijacked by a virus or spyware. Is there a little red eye in the bottom right of the explorer window?

I agree. That will solve your problems. Great browser. Hell, I dont ever use Internet Explorer anymore. It sucks the big one IMO.

well there was no lil red eye, but now i get a pop up that says messenger service window registry corrupted now i know this isnt windows its got to be spyware or adware, but i havent went to any sites out of the ordinary lately or anything i dunno how i would get anything, i did system recovery thing because that usually gets rid of it, but not this time, it solved my problem with logging in on those sites so far knock on wood, but i still get that pop up, how would i get rid of that and how harmful is it? i hope i dont have any major problems .
